WA: "Today is the first gubernatorial, attorney general debate in Spokane" (with live streaming video)

We’re at the Bing Crosby theater in Spokane, where the first
gubernatorial and attorney general debate of the election season is set
to take place this afternoon. The debate will be carried live on TVW and
streamed on the web.
Attorney general candidates Democrat Bob Ferguson and Republican
Regan Dunn will debate at 2 p.m., followed by gubernatorial candidates
Republican Rob McKenna and Democrat Jay Inslee at 3:30 p.m.
Each debate lasts an hour, and the candidates are expected to take
media questions after each debate — stay tuned, we hope to bring you
live interviews from the theater.
Back at our studios in Olympia, we’ll have a live special edition of The Impact
offering analysis of the event, both before and after the debates with
political reporters Jim Camden of the Spokesman-Review and Jordan
Schrader of The News Tribune. That will start at 1:45 p.m.
The debate will be moderated by Austin Jenkins, host of Inside Olympia and a public radio correspondent with Northwest News Network.
